Description

A Still life of salmon cutlets and herring on a table with a brass pan oil on panel 45.5 x 60cm

Condition report: Oil on panel. The woodgrain runs horizontally and is formed from two boards. The join has been repaired and has butterfly joins. The paint along the joins is disrupted. There is extensive overpaint across the surface of the painting, mainly located in the background. The frame is in a good condition. The panel was constructed from 2 horizontal oak boards. Analysis of the tree-ring sequences from these provided dates for both boards. These boards were derived from different trees sourced from the eastern Baltic area of Europe. The tree- ring dating result suggests that this panel dates from c. 1633 to c. 1649. A full dendrochronology report is available upon request.
